Subject: "category.py add" doesn't follow redirects
Original description:
When I run the command "category.py add" and follow the instructions on the screen, the bot begins adding categories to the articles that I've specified, but if these are redirects it doesn't work on them: It should work on the redirect target.

I have made a list \[http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usuario:Muro\_de\_Aguas/Bugs/pywikipedia\] where \(I think\) you can see the problem easily.

Thanks.
